Our lovely sellers at La Loma Dr received outstanding results in the sale of their home. The homeowners - long-time friends and repeat clients, trusted Broker/Owner Heather Buckman to guide them through this important transition as they downsized to their next chapter.
The ChallengeThe sellers had already purchased their new home, making it critical to sell La Loma quickly. They were also concerned about pricing, wanting to maximize their proceeds while ensuring the property didn’t linger on the market.
Heather’s deep market knowledge and negotiation skills took center stage. She and the owners priced the property to attract serious buyers while ensuring it reflected the home’s true value. Cowford's strong marketing program helped secure immediate interest that resulted in an offer right away.
The home went under contract in just three days, far exceeding the sellers’ expectations for time on market. Heather also negotiated a final price that closed $20,000 over the Zestimate, helping her clients achieve a fantastic return on their investment.
The transaction wasn’t without hurdles. Negotiating credits for necessary repairs required finesse and determination. Keeping everything on track, ensuring all parties remained aligned to meet the closing timeline.
Heather has worked with these sellers on multiple transactions over the years, building a relationship based on trust and results. They knew her expertise and dedication would help them navigate this important step in their downsizing journey.
Heather’s background in technology, marketing, and social work made real estate the perfect career!
